=== [http://www.pacb.com/applications/base_modification/index.html BACTERIAL BASE MODIFICATION] === One aspect that makes PacBio sequencing unique is its ability to recognize chemical modifications of bases. Because the instrument works by measuring the time a nucleotide is in the active site, it has an axis of βtimeβ. Basepairing modified bases has different kinetics which allows the sequencer to provide a likelihood score that any given base has been modified. Methylcytosine, Hydroxymethylcytosine, 6-methyl adenosine and many others have been detected utilizing this kinetics mode.
